I feel so domesticated. And so old. And so LAME!!! The highlight of my day was going to the grand reopening of the grocery store in my neighborhood after work. Yes, you heard me right...the highlight of my day. I'm not exactly sure when I turned into the person who counts down the weeks and days until the nearest grocery opens or who is brought to tears by classical music or who dresses for comfort above all things or who records every single cheon won (10 cents) that is spent, but I have an inkling that it happened here in Korea while I wasn't looking. It's odd to think how much my life has changed in such a short amount of time. Sometimes I see myself changing ever so slowly as it happens. And then other times, like today, it hits me like a sudden flash. I do something which seems to myself so out of character and am reminded that time marches on as much as I may try to force it to stop. As I come to grips with the fact that time will not stop and therefore that I will continue to change as time runs its course, my only prayer is that I change for the better; that I become more loving, more patient, more kind, more compassionate and more Christlike. Just a simple thought from a simple and more usually than not confused young woman.
News on the street is that Kristy is finally going to have her baby. I can't wait to see pictures of my new little niece, Amelia! Keep Kristy, Rudy, Amelia, Noah and the entire Kash family in your prayers.
I love you all and miss you more with each day that passes.
It's ALL About Him,

I think it's because you just became an aunt again that makes you "old" feeling. It happens. Welcome to growing up--sometimes it's not so fun. On the other hand, it's not you that had the baby so that must make you feel happy and young!
ReplyDeleteMiss you so much and wish you were here to hold and love on Amelia.
